K.A. Wiggins

When you’re nothing, you have to grab everything you can and hang onto it with everything you’ve got.

When the dreamwealking threadwitch Ravel's been obsessed with since boyhood vanishes, the shadow prince of Refuge's dissolute underground risks all the power he's begged, borrowed, and stolen to chase her down.

But, on that desperate road trip through the monster-infested wilderness, he's forced to peel back his own mask and grapple with the dark truths behind all the glitter.

Will he find the right thread to pull and win back his love, or will the conscience this puppetmaster has been running from all his life finally cut his strings?

Tragic pasts and twisted futures collide in Boy With No Name, a novelette-length dystopian romantic tragedy (lovers-to-enemies-to-...? / antihero romance) for upper YA to NA/Adult audiences. (No spice, off-screen trauma, implied child neglect.)

This story takes place in the Threads of Dreams universe and is suggested as a companion read to book 2, Black the Tides. Also available in Fiction-Atlas Press anti-hero anthology The Devil You Know.

Letter From the End of the World: Create the City of Nightmares

KA Wiggins

Unquestioning obedience is fair trade for survival in the City of Nightmares. Especially when this haunted outcast has been faking it all along...

A prickly girl, an arrogant boy & a vengeful ghost weave a dance of death in this multi-awarded first-in-series Dystopian-Gothic Fantasy for fans of V.E. Schwab, Laini Taylor, Holly Black, Kendare Blake & Cassandra Clare.

Cole is one trial from finally earning a future. One where she’ll get to live, even if it is in silent, isolated drudgery. The price of protection from the soul-sucking monsters overrunning her city is absolute, unfailing compliance with Tower regulation. But keeping her mouth shut is one thing. Controlling her thoughts—not to mention the ghost who haunts them? Not so easy.

She can’t afford to screw up again.

But when the cracks in her "good girl" act widen, neither Nightmares nor Tower authorities descend. Instead, a cocky stranger slips in with a dangerously tempting offer. The young rebel's forbidden whispers of a glittering underworld beneath the drowned streets are going to get someone killed.

Someone else—because regulation is there to keep the monsters at bay. And she's not about to sacrifice herself on the altar of his arrogance.

But all her careful plans go up in smoke when she stumbles over the devastating conspiracy smouldering at the heart of her homeland. Turns out her future isn’t the only one on the verge of crumbling to ash. And the only way to survive might just be plunging headfirst into the flames...

The Nightmares are rising. Will one girl's forbidden dreams—and long-buried magic—be enough to stop the coming massacre?

This lush, genre-bending YA Fantasy of a darkly gothic dystopia overrun by eldritch horrors is recommended for readers 14+. Love science fantasy with an ecopunk edge, eerie dark fantasy, and slow-burn gothic fantasy horror for teens and up like Anna Dressed in Blood, This Savage Song, Shadowhunters, and Strange the Dreamer?

Blind the Eyes: Enter the City of Nightmares

Don't think. Don't talk. And definitely don't dream.

The Nightmares will find you.

BLIND THE EYES
In a drowned city on the edge of the sea lives a girl in a tower.

Cole is nobody. One more haunted drone among the grey, spiritless masses. Until her dreary future is stolen—and a quest to take revenge uncovers ghosts, betrayal, and her bloody past.

She's about to become their worst nightmare.

BLACK THE TIDES
Something deadly lurks beneath the waves.

Battered but defiant, Cole can't wait to get back into the fight. But when her newly reclaimed thread-witchery fails her mid-battle, the only path forward leads through the monster-infested wilds. Can she reclaim her forgotten dreamweavers' birthright from the mountains before they claim her?

She never even saw it coming.

BURN THE SKIES
In the City of Nightmares, death is far from the end.

Shattered, powerless, and more alone than ever, Cole fights on. Failure means more than her own destruction. If the city falls, its eldritch horrors will sweep across the land. But will her last-ditch grasp at the power to stop them go up in flames?

The dreamscape takes no prisoners. Neither does she.

Threads of Dreams: The Complete Trilogy Collection

There's safety in isolation. But when her walls shatter, can this haunted teen build a bridge between ghosts, rebels, and dreamwalkers before the nightmares eat her alive?

All her life, Cole has been trying to prove her worth. Earn the right to live. It's hard not to be a little obsessed with survival when your only "friend" is an unruly ghost and you live in a walled city where even just thinking wrong gets your soul devoured by eldritch horrors.

Things take a turn for the deadly when a mesmerizing stranger and his dangerously tempting offer drive her into the arms of the monster-taken dead—and into the middle of a grisly conspiracy. But Cole hasn't yet uncovered the biggest secret of all, and it might just have something to do with the mysterious threads that keep tugging her into horrifying visions. Now she and her disembodied best-frenemy are on the run from enforcers, dreamjacking ghosts & soul-sucking nightmares in a quest to expose the lies and take back their lives.

Blind the Eyes is the first book in a lush and labyrinthine trilogy of paranormal-meets-gothic-dystopian YA fantasy filled with glittering underworlds, delicious-and-deceptive strangers, and facing down the haters—including the voices in your head—for those who like a little sparkle with their monsters (it glistens so nicely on all the blood.)

Blind the Eyes: Paranormal-Dystopian YA Dark Fantasy

What happens when you release the hero within—and she's a stranger?

"I'm stuck in a loop, trying not to look at the ghost of a girl with golden curls and hazel eyes..."

When a series of eerily haunting dreams drives Cole back into battle too soon, the power she's only just learned to wield fails to show up for the fight.

Dreamwalker and childhood friend Ash claims a trip to her long-forgotten homeland in the mountains will help her reclaim her missing magic and hard-won sense of purpose. But the last thing she wants to do is waste days trekking through the monster-infested wilderness with nothing but a snarky ghost and a boy who's made it his life's mission to save a dead girl.

"The last guy who wanted me to trust him tried to sacrifice me to the Mara . . ."

Cole's hesitation doesn't stop Ash from spiriting her across sea-monster-ridden waters to the terrifyingly twisted lands beyond, leaving her broken yet beloved city without protection. If she can't reclaim her past and restore her connection to the dreamscape before it's too late, her newfound friends won't be the only ones to pay the price.

But more than just monsters stand in her way—and this time, taking back the power to stop them might just break her.

Black the Tides is the second book in a lush and labyrinthine trilogy of paranormal-meets-gothic-dystopian YA fantasy filled with monster-infested mountains, haunted forests, and unexpected twists for those who like a little sparkle with their monsters (it glistens so nicely on all the blood.) Fans of cinematic solarpunk utopian planning, dark Northern Gothic forests, and monster-hunting road trips will love this genre-bending dark fantasy with a devastating cliffhanger twist.

Dreamwalker and childhood friend Ash claims a trip to her long-forgotten homeland in the mountains will help her reclaim her missing magic—and hard-won sense of purpose.

Not that she has much choice; if she can't restore her connection to the dreamscape before it's too late, her newfound friends won't be the only ones to pay the price.

Black the Tides: Gothic-Paranormal YA Dark Fantasy

In the City of Nightmares, death is far from the end . . . 

"The edges of this world's map are not bordered with monsters but with ghosts."

Losing her magic was one thing, but getting bodyjacked by the ghost of her past self? That’s a whole new low for teenage dream-weaving threadwitch Cole. And when sea monsters shipwreck her hard-won backup, there’s only one hope left to contain the nightmares and escape a bodiless purgatory of eternal torment.

"I'm afraid I'll go mad long before Cadence breaks."

But sacrificing the life of a child—however eerie and backstabbing—is too great a price to pay, even to save her friends and her city. As her remaining allies fall and resistance mounts, Cole fights to hold back the monsters at the cost of her own rapidly draining life force.

Can she bring herself to destroy her body-snatching young frenemy for good before everyone she loves goes up in flames?

In this explosive conclusion to the Threads of Dreams trilogy, the spark of revolution is lit—and even a drowned city can burn.
